A great place for a photo along the harbour. We were lucky to catch it at dusk, when it’s still bright enough for a photo, but you can also see all the colours. When we were there it was cycling through the rainbow.
The Dining Room at Butchart Gardens

Had an absolutely lovely afternoon tea in the dining room. We had made an advanced reservation and were seated right away. The conservatory is beautiful and the service was fantastic. The server walked us through each item on the tray. The starter triffle was unexpected and delicious. The entire experience was relaxing and delicious. We are so glad we went and would definitely return.

Had a delicious signature high tea here today. Made a reservation online, and they were ready and welcoming when we arrived. They took the time to walk us through their tea menu and each item on the high tea platter. The restaurant was cleaning and the staff kind and welcoming and helpful. All the food was delightful. Very glad we came and would definitely return.
Super Mario World is visually stunning. They really have managed to bring the nostalgia of my childhood to life in many beautiful ways. The Mario Kart ride was enjoyable - though the visors/helmets were very heavy. Having to purchase the power up bands for $40 in order to engage in the full experience was frustrating. The line ups for the games to earn the keys were LONG and they were disorganized at giving instructions - not telling people how to play until they were up there. It would be helpful to have one employee providing instructions while the previous person is playing to speed up the queues. The character meets are very rushed, with limited interactions and stock answers - sometimes not really connected to anything you say. Nothing like other greets at this part and others. It is definitely worth it to get the early entrance - we accomplished everything in the first hour, before the lines got extreme. That was well worth the money. Glad we have seen it once, but didn’t feel like I needed to revisit it, unlike other lands that left me wanting to return.
